Cole scoffs, "I can do relationships.

Zoey shakes her head and says, "No you can't.

"I can. Want put me to the test?

"Sure. How?"

"Seduce me."

She squints and says, "No."

How come not?

I don't believe in you.

"Then begin to believe in me."

"No."

All through lunch, this conversation has been going on. On our Friday night out as a group, Cole began returning to our table and resuming their conversation with Zoey.

When eating, Zeke, Isaac, and I are silent, as are we. Ezekiel is on the verge of losing his patience, but we're simply letting this go on.

How can I establish my credibility with you?

"Cole, every night you sleep with a different person. Whatever you might believe, you couldn't maintain a relationship without cheating, and our friendship would collapse as a result.

    How about that? A purple garment from my closet is raised by Zoey."No, I wore that to my cousin's birthday celebration who is eight years old."I got into Zoey's car yesterday after seeing Mason and told her I was going to the party. If Zoe isn't too preoccupied with Cole, I want to forget about him and have fun with her.How about that? She displays a silver one after that. While my mother gave it to me for my birthday one year, I have never worn it. It is held up by a few slender straps and has silver glitter all over it."I'm not sure,"We've been doing this for thirty minutes, she sighs. You have to select one. Silver or the black necklace you wore to Mason's birthday, in my opinion.Mason makes me frown. I want to forget about him. I want a peaceful, Mason-free night without any trouble.Zoey notices my discomfort and says, "Sorry.So I turn my focus back to the dresses and say, "It's fine."

    Give it to me, screw you! Zeke yells in Isaac's face while holding him by the collar.I heard him shouting from across the corner as I was retrieving my chemistry textbooks from my locker. So I'm listening in right now. I detest having to do that, and I want to yell at Zeke for holding Isaac in that position, but if they see me, he won't tell me what he wants.He needs to receive some support for his rage. So now, for instance, he never handles things well. The fact that Isaac and Cole are aware of his lack of malice and understanding is a wonderful thing."You'll regret it, man," I said. Isaac makes an unsuccessful attempt to free Zeke from his grip. Others are observing and trying to figure out what is happening."I could care less. I require it."Isaac says, "Fuck off," and tries to shove Zeke away once more, but Zeke only pushes Isaac's back against the wall.You desire that I beat you till I have what I want?Oh God.

When I step outside, Zeke's automobile is already on the move. Asshole.Come on," says Brandon. I was completely unaware that he was standing next to me. He starts to make his way through the parking lot."Where from?"

Not a sad sigh, but a moving I'm on to a new chapter in my life, sigh.So, it's a new chapter in my mind. My mother and Charlie are getting married today. We'll be moving in with Charlie after they return from their honeymoon in Scotland, which my mother has always wanted to visit.The good news is that Charlie lives about twenty minutes away, which means I'll be twenty minutes away from Zeke.Zeke.The person with whom I haven't spoken since the night of the party.I believe it is for the best. I've managed to get back on track with my schoolwork, go out less, and reconnect with old chess club friends, and I haven't cried once about him. It hurt so much, but I had to force myself to forget about him and stop thinking about what-ifs. What if Zeke didn't act like that, that night because I told him how I felt? What if

    Just as Zeke disappears down the stairwell, I notice the back of his head. When did he arrive?"I have to leave. It was a pleasure speaking with you, "Mason, I say. We had run into each other and began chatting. I'd rather not waste my time talking to him because I still feel awkward around him, even if he doesn't.I decided that hating him was pointless because I no longer felt the same way about him. I'm too preoccupied with Zeke. The thought of him with anyone else doesn't bother me, but what he did still irritates me. Even if I haven't forgiven him completely, life is too short to hate people."All right," he says, looking down at his feet. "I'll be around then."I say goodbye and head downstairs, hoping to find Zeke. I've given it some thought, and I think I'll take Zoey's advice and just tell him how I feel. What could possibly go wrong?"Marnie!" Zoey emerges from a crowd and runs over to me, knocking someone's drink out of their hand in the process. "I just saw Zeke," she me

    I open the front door to a squealing Zoey, who rushes in, grabs my arm, and drags me upstairs and into my bedroom."Would you mind telling me what's going on right now?" As I collapse onto my bed, I inquire. Zoey freaked out and called me half an hour ago, saying she needed to talk to me about something, so I told her to come over. And now she's closing the door and inspecting the outside of my windows for dramatic effect.Finally, she sits beside me on my bed and takes a deep breath. "Last night, Cole and I had sex."My pupils dilate. "Really? You finally succumbed to him.""I didn't give in to him; I wanted to.""... How did it go?" I inquire, surprised that I'm even interested in learning about this topic."Surprisingly effective. Cole is something "With a laugh, she says.

    Zeke's warm hand in mine warms my entire body when the chilly air hits my skin like ice. I can see his unconcerned face when I look up at him while we stroll across the city.As he realizes he's just caught me watching, his head twists and he smiles. "You could just tell me that I'm attractive,"I shrug and say, "You're hot.He grins. Likewise, Ms. Jones.Unfortunately, I am still at the stage where the little things, like his calling me hot, make me blush.He squeals, "Awww," mocking me.

    As we enter the building for school, Zoey exclaims, "Thank Jesus, it's Friday."Similar," I respond with a chuckle. A walking meme, she is. Particularly today, when her hair is up in a messy bun, her face is unmade up, and she appears to be wearing pajamas.She murmurs, "See you in math," as she passes by my locker as I stop at mine.I unlock my locker with the code and pull my arithmetic book out. Then I realize that my nicely arranged row of books has something orange resting on top of it. A package of Reese's peanut butter cups is one of my all-time favorites, and I immediately recognize it as such.How on earth did something get inside of this? I didn't place it there because, if it had been in my hands, it would never have survived long enough to go to my locker.I pick it up confused to discover that the front has text scrawled in black marker.I'm sorry, baby.The short sentences written make my heart beat faster.
